LONDON : WEDNESDAY EVENING. AUGUST 1, 1838 It was observed by Sir ROBERT PEEL on Monday night that he saw no principle which had guided the Pension Com mittee in coming to their decision. Neither do we, when they could leave Mr. HOLMES' son on the List, permit Mrs.RosAmoND CROKER to hope for a reversion, and strike off Sir DAVID SCOTT. What has poor Sir DAVID done which makes his pension more disreputable than that which Messrs. CROKER and HoLxes took advantage of their political influence to procure for their wife and son ? Surely Lord 'WALSINGHAM'S pension of 9361. which was granted to his father in consideration of his ser vices as Postmaster-General was quite as well deserved as the pension granted to the wife of a Secretary of the Admiralty or the son of a Treasurer of the Ordnance ? Lord WAestivoxAm held a public office of some labour for twenty years, at a salary of 2,5001., Mr. CROKER, the lriefless barrister, also held a public situation of equal or --•ereater emolument, for about as many years ; he ass his retiring pension, or superannuation, and why should his wife he treated with greater favour than Lord WALSINGHAM'S son ? Neither do we understand why Lord BLOIIFIELD, who is Colonel o f the Ist Battalion of the Royal Artiller • and Commandant of Woolwich, an d i s therefore now in'active service, should still retain a pension of 936/. The Noble Lord was favourite equerry to GEORGE IV., till some other favourite made his services abroad more desirable, and he earned a diplomatic pension of 1,5001. by feasting for a few years at Stockholm, having nothing earthly to do but enjoy himself and amuse his friends. He gives that up, and why should lie not give up the the 936/. granted fur no ser vice? This case exposes thy principle on which the public are continually plundered by those who are called public men. They ordain large salaries and large pensions for such perfectly useless, and to the public valueless, oc cupations as that of now and then bowing at the levee of the Kkg of SWEDES. That is tile example ; hut there are some score of her MAJESTY'S representar:v , :s at foreign Courts whose duties are equally onermv, and equally well pail. After going through the pleas Int process of earning a pension, they get praised as patriots, as having a regard t o h onesty an d h onour , and sp,:ring the public purse if they accept only 900/. a-year in addition to the emoluments of active service instead of the 1,500/. they might by possibility receive. To us the principle of giving a man a pension for living, w , at Stockholm for a fern years in great aflluenca at the pubic expense, while I he is still able to do publi c duty, and is actually engaged in the public service, receiving a large an nual salary, seems as gross and wanton a uaste of the public resources as can be conceived. Seeing that Mr. CROKER'S wife leis for the present been deprived of her pension, and Lord WALSINGIIA/1 alteget• er of his, THE SUN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 1, 1838. while Lord BLOMPSELD keeps his 9361., we are, like Sir ROBERT PEEL, unable to find any principle which has guided the decision of the Committee. Nothing seems to us more scandalous than to misappro priate a fund intended to relieve distress or reward pub lic exertion (which is well applied in the cases of Mrs. MORTIMER and Lady POPHAM), to pamper luxury or nou rish pride. An honest and honourable man who, like Lord BLOMFIELD, has a clear income, or like Mr. Cao- KER, a munificent allowance for his birth and sta tion, would as much scorn to quarter himself on such a fund as an independent artisan, in the receipt of good wages, would scorn to go weekly to the parish board and share in the allowance which is properly provided for the widows, the orphans, the aged, the bed-ridden, and the idiots of the parish. Much has within these few years been said of the disgraceful conduct of some individuals, who, being in the receipt of good wages, have nevertheless sent their wives or sons to the parish for weekly relief. Their conduct has a warrant in that of Mr. CROKER and Mr. HOLMES ; and if the Poor-law Commissioners and the Legislature have visited the pauper-workmen with unmeasured and virtuous reprobation, what ought the public to say of these Tory public servants ? One now is, and one was, a Member of the Legislature, and both belong to that party which has constantly denied political power to the bulk of the people, on ac count of their want of honesty and independence. The calumniators of mankind, the vilifiers of the poor, are to be found among Tory pensioners. From their places in Parliament, and on the judgment-seat, they snugly and slily draw the public wealth into their own pouches, they denounce the people as dishonest and unworthy of confidence ; and think it decent to deny them the political franchise, or even the poor liberty of drinking their beer how and where they like. Out on the hypo crites, who fill high places, and palm themselves off on the world as the purest of patriots, as the most disinterested legislators, and the holiest of all created men. We were glad to observe that Lord BROUGHAM last night announced his intention of oppoiug in the House of Peers the Irish Tithe Bill, to the utmost. In doing so, the Noble Lord emphatically declared, that the oldest Peer in that House might live to see the total extinction of tithes in Ireland. We object to the Bill in its present state, because it inflicts a gross injustice on the people of England, to satisfy the Tories, and pave the way for their return to office, without the smallest chance of preserving a fraction of the tithes for the public. Instead of this complicated and mischievous piece of legislation, it would be infinitely bet ter at once to give up the tithes, allowing the landlords and occupiers to share them, and to provide for the existing ti s of priests by pensions on the Consolidated Fund. If they do not get pensions now, the chances are that by and by they will rt neither tithes nor pensions. Since we wrote our few remarks yesterday on Lord DURHAM'S conduct our attention has been attracted to the opinions of the Mont:. eel Herald, the organ of the insult in!, arrogant Orange party in Canada—whose preroAcrous claims and unjust assumptions were the chief causes of the public discontent, and our opinion is confirmed by the ‘ehument manner in which that Journal—tires:rife-stirriog, blood-thirsty Standard of Canada—condtmns Lord DUR HAM'S conduct. It condemns the Noble Lord, too, for the very reasons why we praised him, namely, because the banishment is intended only temporurily to remove the political offenders from Canada, and by and by to pardon them, if they deserve it, and desire to return. We were doubtful yesterday wlither NELSON and his friends were satisfied with Lord DURHAMS conduct, but the Montreal Herald assures us that they are, and accept wi:h thankful re,s their temporary banishment. We have, therefore, no loi:ger the smallest doubt as to the wisdom cf Lord DURHAM'S proceedings, and be:ieve, that before half a dozen years have p issed, the very men who are now most eager to shed blood, will rejoice the most, that his Lord ship's despotism has prevented them from glottiog their le gal vengeance. If, too, these mea voluntarily neeept ba nish:l-telt as a means of safety to themselves, what becomes of that contemptible oljc!ctiori of Lord ELLE:NBC/ROUGH'S, that e...ery one of their cases required a long legal iovesti gation, before the Council could properly come to a deci sion ? This fact, and this view, then, supply an answer to a multitude of quibbles as to Lord DURHAM'S conduct, and should make individuals exercLe some forbearance towards 11;m in his present extraordinary and import:azA situation. We rgree with a writer in the London and West minster Review in saying that, in Lord DURHAM'S situation, boldness is prudence ; and his first step, placing himself in a position independent of both parties, was so well chosen that his best well-wishers could nst have imagined a wiser commencement of his Government. Intrusted with most extensive power by the whole Legisla ture, it is scarcely decorous in individual Members of Par- , Lament to hamper his discretion. At present let it be re membered that society does not tolerate cruel punishments for even great crimes, and it will not bear that any suc cessful party should punish political opinion or political conduct, of which that party disapproves, more severely than murder, when a few years may make what it now condemns the theme of general approbation. It will be Jbserved that we say nothing of the legality of Lord DURHAM'S proclamation, but believe it on the high authority of Lord BROUGHAM, who so described it in the House of Peers, to be illegal ; but we approve of it not withstanding, because we have learned from Lord BROUGHAM himself, that what is legal is not what is just. The law is become," he said on a memorable occasion, " not a staff to the honest, but a two-edged sword in the hands of the wicked." Perhaps Lord DURHAM, if the men were to return from Bermuda, would have no power, we trust that he has no inclination, to put them to death, and this part of his Proclamation is a mere trutuni fulazen ; but, perhaps, that appearance and threat of cruelty was necessary to pacify the party which finds itself dreadfully aggrieved by not having an opportunity to glut its vengeance. We beg the particular attention of our readers to an article in another column on the infamous conduct of the Highland and Island Destitution Committee, which we have copied from a Morning Contemporary. The Times has, in its usual unceremonious manner, torn aside the veil which the Committee had thrown over their nefarious proceedings, and has exposed to the public view as rank a piece of jobbery as was ever hatched in the brain of the most finished adept in such matters. In one respect this job surpasses all others in blackness of character—it adds the most barbarous cruelty to a flagrant breach of a public trust. We now see, clearly enough, the reason why the " Advance-nought" clique —we borrow this happy epithet from the Times—had no bowels of compassion for the sufferings of the poor Shet landers. An influential trader in hospitals, it now appears, has found means to chain up the sympathy of a majority of the Committee with the distresses of the remote in- habitants of Thule, and to prevail upon them to ease his purse of the burden which he had undertaken of founding an hospital himself in the beautiful vale of Stratb peffer "To give an adequate expression of our asto nishment," exclaims the Times—and we heartily concur in the exclamation—" at the cool effrontery which produced the proposal, and the reprehensible inadvertency which ac quiesced in it, is wholly beyond our power. A more flagrant violation of the original purpose for which the funds in question were contributed we can hardly conceive. We call upon the London Committee's constituents and sup porters, to strengthen the hands of the honest and over borne minority." TLe Paris Papers of :',londay announce the termination, without any further accidents, of the anniversary of the Revoution of 18:30. The affair was altogether a mockery of what it was intende.l to be ; and, to say the truth, the sooner the citizens of Paris dispense with its celebration, the better it will be both for themselves and the Govern -11 t T Duchess ALEXANDER of WUATEMBURG, eldest il.tughter of the ling of the FRENCH, gave birth to a tine bov illorid2y.

I'Ve have adticei fioni Madrid of the 9.3 d ult., but they b no intn!Fgcr.ee of any interest. No accounts lead reached the capital from the theatre of war. Great pre parations were making for the celebration of the QUEEN'S birth-day. The following news from the North of Spain is extracted ftom a Paris Journal : The Sentinelle des Pyrenees of the 27th instant, publishes a letter dated Estella, the 21st, which gives the following intelligence :—" A young girl, the bearer of a secret correspondence to the Christie() chiefs from a Carlist Lieutenant-Colonel of Invalids, was stopped by one of the outposts - near the Ebro, brought in here • .t as well as the Lieu. tenant-Colonel, yesterday. In cons mation given by the letter, many persons were arrested, t e been already shot. Six hundred peasants are occupied n the fortifications. Don Carlos and his Court are still aroto, having dis covered a conspiracy amongst the a. s of the army, has already had seventeen of them shot ; ; are the Governors of Maneru, and of the port:of Santa Barb 9 : After passing in review this morning twenty battalions of infantry and seven squadrons of cavalry, General Maroto promised the troops six months' pay. In a despatch received yesterday by Maroto, Cabrera informs him that he had discovered a plot amongst some of his chief officers to deliver up to Oras the forts and walled towns, and that he had put to death nine of the principal plotters."—Another account from Estella states that the young girl who had been shot was the daughter of the Lieut.-Col. of Invalids, who had suffered the same fate. A letter from Odessa of the Ist ult., published by a Royalist Journal, states that Russia has succeeded in tak ing possession of the whole of the Circassian Coast border. ing on the Black Sea. We need hardly take the trouble of saying that we attach no credit whatever to such a statement. FRENCH FUNDS.—PARis, JULY 30. Five per Cents_ I I If. '2 5 c 50e. 2oe.

Nothing of importance took place in the House up to the ,inte of our going to pre Es th's evening. On Monday a shocking accident occurred to a young female named Catherine Jacobs, aged nineteen, residing with her parents, in Bailey's-court, Smart's.buildings, Drury-lane. It appears the unfortunate girl was leaning out of the first floor window, fin the purpose of hanging some clothes on a line attached to a pole in front of the window. A neighbour, obs:Tving her reaching out a considerable way, and only depending on the po:e, remarked that if she did not mind she would fall. The girl replied, " What a bit of fun, it' I did." The words were scarcely ut , cred when the pole gave way, :did she was preci pitated with trem en d ous v i o l encQ on her forehead on the stones blow. Sie was picked up insensilde, arid conveyed to Charing_cross 116s:situ), wh re it was found she had received a violent cor.cussion of the brain and is not eitreeted to survive. NELSON MONUMENT. MEETING AT THE LONDON TAVERN-(THIS DAY.) A public meeting was held at one o'clock this day at the London Ta vern, Bishopsgate-street, fur the purpose of aiding the funds for erect ing a national monument in Trafalgar.square, to commemorate the glo. rious achievements of the late Admiral Lord Nelson. The room, which was excessively crowded, was graced by the presence of a great number of ladies. A few minutes after the hour appointed, his Grace the Duke of Wellington, who had consented to take the Chai', entered the room, and was received with loud and long.continued cheering. Amongst the gentlemen present we observed Admiral Codrington, M.P., Admiral Adam, M.P., Lord Ingestrie, Sir James Duke, M.P., Aaran Chapman, Esq., M.P., Alderman Thompson, M.P., Alderman Sir P. Laurie, Alderman Sir C. Marshall, Alderman T. Wood Alder. man Kelly, Alderman Wilson, Alderman Lucas, Alderman Copeland, Sir J. Shaw, Sir Moses Montefiore, Sir William Parker, the Hon.

The Noble CHAIRMAN said that it had been the desire cf a considera ble number of persons in the metropolis to erect a suitable monument to the memory of the late great naval commander, Lord Viscount Nelson—(Hear, hear)—and a Committee had been formed of which the Duke of Buccleugh was appointed Chairman ; and a meeting was held at the Freemason's Tavern for the purpose of raising subscriptions for carrying into effect the great and useful design. The present requisi tionists having thought it desirable to assist in the execution of this plan, had called upon him to preside at this meeting; and it was with the greatest pleasure and gratification that he had complied with that request, and was extremely happy to see so large and respectable a meeting.— (Cheers.) They had now to provide for the safety and honour of the nation, by marking their sense of the services of a great individual, and ►hus to invite others to endeavour to follow his example, and again to per form such services es they were now called on to commemorate.—( Hear.) He hoped there would be little difficulty in persuading the meeting to make such a subscription as would enable the Committee at once to receive proposals for the execution of this great work.—(Cheers.) Many persons had questioned whether it was not expedient that this monument should be erected at the public expense. In public services these matters were conducted according to precedent, and precedent in this case would have permitted a monument to be erected, and he believrd one had already been erected in the metropolitan Church of thin city. But besides this, it was the intention of the Government and of Parliament that a monument should be erected to commemorate the services of both navy and army, in the course of the late war, and even a sum of money was voted for this service. But the general desire manifested by all public men for economy in the public expenditure, rendered it necessary for the Government to postpone the execution of the plan, and it had never been possible up to this moment to carry it into execution. Under these cir cumstances those who had considered it desirable to commemorate such services had thought it expedient to come forward to solicit private subscriptions to carry into execution this great work. There never was an individual who stood higher in the estimation of the public, and who better merited such a testimonial.—(Cheers.) At an early period of his life the Noble Lord was distinguished for his gallantry and enter prise, and on the day of which this was the anniversary —the battle of the Nile—he showed what might be done for the honour of the country. The last victory of Admiral Nelson was one of the most glorious in itself and most momentous in its results; but one in which unfortunately he lost his valuable life.—(Cheers.) And the Committee now called for sub scriptions to enable them to erect such amonument to the hero's memory as would prove that the country was not ungrateful for his services, and excite others to emulate his bright example.— (Cheers ) In Birming ham and Liverpool, monuments to Lord Nelson had already been erected, and it would be a reproach to London, if a memorial worthy a7ike of the hero whom it was intended to commemorate, and of the high character of this great City, was not erected.—(Cheers.) The Noble Duke concluded by apologizing for the absence of his Grace the Duke of Buccleuch, abo was obliged to attend a Committee of the House of Lords. The Hox. SECRETARY then read the report, whlch stated that the Chancellor of the Exchequer had consented that Trafalgar.square hould be the site of the monument, only on the condition that the designs and estimates should be submitted to the Government, that her Majesty the Queen had subscribed 525!—(Loud cheer,) —and the Queen Dowager 2001.—(Loud cheers.) Altogether there was the sum of 5,545!. in the hands of the present trustees, • ' "' Alderman THOMPSON, in moving the first resolution, said he congra tulated the citizens of London on the presence of the illustrious Duke, w:lo bad driven before bins the armies, of Ellgiall:l'S enemies. It would be a great disgrace to this city if this monument should not be erected, whe❑ two provincial towns had already set the example, and let it be recol. lected that the merchants of London had derived more advantage, per haps, than any other class from the victories of Lord Nelson. The lion. Alderman moved, " That this meeting consider a monument to commemorate the glorious achievements of Admiral Lord Viscount Nelson as an act of justice to his memory, and a merited tribute to the service of which he was so distinguished an ornament."—(Cheers.) Alderman COPELAND seconded the resoluticn. In doing so he al luded to this day being the anniversary of the battle of the Nile, a victory which had effectually f:ustrated the designs of ambitious France on our "ndian possessions.—(Cheers.) It would be a disgrace to the City of London if such a monument was not erected to Lord Nelson's memory as should be worthy of its object.—(Hear, hear.) He felt as proud in taking a part in the proceedings of the day as he bad done in taking a part in getting up a monument for their illusti ious Chairman. As a co:rimer:la' man, he knew the value of their time, and would therefore content him , elf with seconding the motion. The motion was then put and carried. Al lerman T. \Vonn said the motion which ho hod put into his hands was one approving of the Report of the Committee, and that they should irnmedLtely proceed taget designs without selecting any individual for that purpose. He had much pleasure in assisting in so great and good a work. He would not detain them after what they had heard from the illustrious Chairman, who, along with his great predecessor Lord Ne6oo, had secured the peace of the world.—(Cheers.) Sir JAMES DUKE seconded the motion with much pleasure. He had very early in life served in the navy, and now laving one of the commer cial community of London, he was wAI aware of the services, the im mense good, Lord Nelson had done to the community. The motion was put, and passed unanimously. Sir P:!'IBIL LAURIE could not but expr,•ss the heartfelt delight he ex perienced at being called upon to take tart in the proceedings of that day, especially as they had so glorious a man in the chair. It seemed as if providence had made the Duke of Wellington a favourite, by alio., ing him, after twenty-three years had elapsed, to look bock upon the glorious events of the day of Waterloo. His motion was, that the meet ing approved of the proposed site in Trafalgar-square, and thanked the Government for its appropriation. There could not be a dissentient, and therefore he would not say more. Mr. nOBINSON, the Chairman of Lloyd's,' seconded the motion, which was passed unanimously. Alderman LUCAS, with much pleasure, moved the next resolution, which affected their pockets; but in such a cause that he was sure would not much matter. -- SMITH, Esq., seconded the resolution. lie trusted that a mo. nument would be erected worthy of the great roan to whose memory they were now met to do honour.—(Cheers.) The Noble CHAIRMAN said these were all the resolutions which it was intended to submit to the meeting. He trusted the object of the meet. ing would not be lost sight of, but that the subscriptions would be emi nently successful.—(Cheers.) Sir .1. CARNAC moved a vote of thanks to the Duke of Wellington, for his kindness and urbanity in taking the chair on this occasion. It was a proud day in the annals of the city of London, to see the greatest hero of this or any ether age—(Cheers)—ccruing forward to pay a tri bute to the memory of the immortal Nelson.— (Cheers ) Alderman VENABLES seconded the motion, which was put by Sir G. COCKBURN, and enthusiastically received. Sir E. CODRINGTON begged to express his concurrence in the object or the meeting. The Duke of WELLINGTON briefly returned thanks for the honour whirls had been conferred upon him, and expressed great anxiety as to the successful termination of the object of this meeting. A liberal list of subscriptions was then read. Sir G. COCKBURN expressed his gratitude on behalf of the Navy fur their share in the intended memorial. Alter three cheers for the Duke of Wellington the meeting separated. GERMAN PAPERS. FR "T•ERI OF MONTENEGRO, JULY I.—Captain Kowalbiosky, a Russian officer, arrived a few weeks ago at Celengi, and his endeavours are considered as the cause of the tranquillity which has prevailed on the frontiers, particularly at Grabowa, and which has not been inter rupted by th e T urks. Probably it is true, for the very simple reason that the Turks are too much at variance with each other to undertake in concert any effective step. It-vas already confidently hoped that the late events a t G ra b owa would not lead to any further consequences, when, on the 25th June, the Montenegrims, 1,000 strong, under the command of a brother-in-law of the Wladika, made an incursion into the Turkish territory, plundered the districts of Grabowa, Korionichi and Klobak; and, after an action in which there were some killed and wounded on both sides, they retreated with many thousand head of cattle, which they had stolen. The success of the late incursion into Grabowa, the visit of the King of Saxony, and the notorious want and famine among the Turks, have raised the pride and arrogance of the Montenigrims to the highest pitch, so that they are already thinking of plans of conquest. They have taken possession of parts of Grabowa, as well as of Klobak and Trebigne, and it seems that they intend to extend their conquest to the whole of those districts, which would cause a great interruption to the trade o f these countries, and especially would prove a mortal blow to the corn trade between Turkey and Ragusa, and so deprive this circle of its principal resource. In these measures the Montenegrims are assisted by several Austrian deserters, a subject which gives occasion to many complaints on the part of the Turks, while it is of great service to the Montenegrims ; for these deserters, who still wear the Im. perial uniform, are placed at the outposts, where by their challenges in the German language, &c., they still more clearly announce them selves Austrians, and thereby give no little countenance to the erroneous notion eagerly propagated by the Montenegrims, that "the Austrians act with them for the conquest of Turkey," which causes discouragement extreme among the Turks. In the last action one of these deserters fell, in full Austrian uniform, and was left on the field by the Montenegrims, on which the Turkish authorities are said to have sent his uniform, as a corroboration of their complaints, to the Austrian officer commanding on the frontiers. Another remittance of mon ey from Russia has been received at Montenegro ; 8,000 rubles come annually in this manner as a contribution from Russia, in order t o introduce at least the elements o f c i v i lization into this poor country. ROME, Jnr.v 17.—Monsignore Vi a l a- p rela will leave Rome in a few days, to proceed to his post a s P apa l Internuncio at Munich. The famous law-suit of the Giustiniani family is at length decided by a decree of a Conjugation of Cardinals, appointed for the purpose, in favour of the heirs at Genoa, to whom the Cardinal of that name is to deliver up without delay all the property in his possession. As the law. suit has been in all the Courts during a space of tiftean years, till the Pope appointed the Conjugation to decide in the last instance, any appeal against this sentence is out of the question.

Inspector-General's Office, Customhouse, London, July 21, 1838. FASHIONS FOR AUGUST. (From the London and Paris Magazine of Fashion.) White is decidedly in favour this season, and even when broche, the patterns are so light and separate that the white predominates. The application of velvet flowers is the newest style, and bouquets of gera nium all over, or the coral pattern on flounces are very elegant, Mous selines de laine embroidered in tambour are also pretty for the prome nade or morning visit. Embroidery is introduced on every thing, and different kinds of lace are imitated in work. Dres. , es which are very full trimmed, such as have five and six rows of bouillons, are not made so wide in the skirt. The fashionable sleeve is mode. rately wide, with trimming to match those on the skirt Corsages continue to be made en error; many are finished with a fichu paysanne with ruche, two rows of ruches ornament the tops of the sleeves, and a similar trimming on a larger scale forms a double fes.toon at the bottom of the skirt. Some redingotes are made en tirely without ceinture, which gives length to the waist; they are finished with two very small rouleaux, the b . acks full, having the ga. thers confined about two fingers above the waist. Flounces are becoming more general, and vary according to the taste, fancy, or style, of each lady. Vandykes and ruches chicorees are a!so in favour. Very large mantelets and shawls of white organdy, either plain or embroidered, are worn. Shawls are so large as almost to reach the ground ; they are made of shot silks. Mantelets are also made of the same material, and are trimmed with lace or bands of the same pinked. Muslin and net &Thus preserve the same form ; some are sounded behind. Fichus ala Corday are worn in Paris of black tulle, edged wills blond crossing in front, the ends falling behind the whole length of the skirt. Very little ribbon is used on Leghorn or dress bonnets, but on straw and neglige it is frequently mixed With white or black lace; plaids or liVely colour, are selected for this purpose; the long ends droop ng on the shoulders are abandoned. The flowers worn ate all in branches, and placed very low at the side of the bonnets, which are worn very backward on the head Caputes of paille de riz a ith silk crowns are very pretty. Bavolcts are less used. Marabouts are always much ized, and are placed on bonnets which are tul!tm in front and deep at the ears. Caps ornamented with flu:vets cmt:nt.e fashionable, but are not placed quite so backward, nor is the trimming so flet Ott the forehead.
